Not as good as Grandma's but couldn't find it. I used what was on hand: dried black, kidney, pinto and lima beans along with 3 slices uncured bacon (no nitrites/nitrates), a bit of salt pork, chorizo, tomato sauce, small can of diced tomatoes and liquid smoke. Not mushy like using canned beans! - 9/8/15
